Holy warmth! So either way I can plan on bare legs and be set

OK - I just read the most recent comments from this past week and I've just got to say that I have a HUGE smile on my face just thinking about next weekend! I only wish that even more YLF women could join us because this is going to be a PARTY!

OOH! If we haven't decided on a park yet, I just remembered one in Fullerton that is gorgeous, has lots of shade, ducks, streams with little crawfish, and is super clean and well tended:

It's right off the 57 Fwy... not the closest park to your lodgings, AJ, but it sticks out in my mind as the prettiest and cleanest picknic-y spot I've been to.

Fasten your seat belts, I'm trolling for flights as we speak. I've been PMing with AJ and I think I might be able to join you all! Hubby flies out Sunday morning and will leave me the car at our airport here in Phoenix. I just need to get back sometime Sunday night so I can get the kids off to school Monday morning.
I. am. so. excited! It's not a sure thing yet, but.....
SQUEEEEEEEE!

Latest news: hubby says I should farm out the kids for Sunday night so as not to miss ANY of the fun.

OK, here's the YLF roll call so far: Rae, Khris, Una, MaryK, Vicki, Marley, Aida, and Claire.

PLUS I get a three night slumber party with Aida and Claire!

SQUEEEE!!! I'm going to be bouncing off the walls all week!!

Rae, that park looks lovely! Looks like it's about 30 min away from the hotel.

Vicki? Marley? Will that be too far for you?

I'm not sure if I will be able to join you guys on Saturday, so you should go ahead and just do what the majority decide. I am involved in a fund-raiser that day, but my "part" will be done prior to the event, so I've got my fingers crossed for Saturday. As it stands right now, I will be free Friday night and all day Sunday to shop and play and party with my YLF friends! Yeh!

Sounds so fun... I really do want to join one of these LA gatherings as I lived there 20 years and can stay with my sister. I just won't be able to get any more time off until January - February - March.

Oh Denise - that would be so great if you could join us. I'd LOVE to meet you! The next gathering, OK?

CocoLion, my "Yipee" was directed at Marley and not at your mentioning that you can't join us. : (

I'm just going to throw this suggestion out there to see what you all think (even though I might not even get to be with you all on Saturday) - but, how about going to the beach instead of a park? Newport is so close to where you guys are going to be staying - and they have a great boardwalk, pier, etc. - it would be much easier for the out-of-towners to get to, rather than the park in Fullerton, wouldn't it?

AJ, I didn't take it that way at all! Marley, I'd love to meet you too! Anything in the winter, I'm on.

Wow! This is going to be awesome! I am about to get on my ship and will be incommunicado until next Saturday, but tell me where to be on Sunday and I will be there with bells on!!!

Squee!!

Mary, I'm going to PM you my cell phone number! And send me yours if you can. Thanks!
